Another +1 for wifi calling not working.

It's alright, but this radio sucks big time, the data keeps getting stuck. anyone flash any newer radio? Or can I go back to the stock radio cause this ****ing sucks. Sometimes I get stuck with no data connection and have to toggle airplane mode.

Also Edge in places where I used to get a strong signal of 3G/4G? Hell nawww
[HTC Sensation] Vipeout:
This is the very first custom rom I tried. I went to boot manager, did factory reset, wiped cache and then installed 2.2.5 (was previosuly on stock 2.3.4).

Unfortunately, my caroussel effect is gone. Screen seems less responsive now.

:(
[HTC Sensation] Jason Syn:
Ok I did that, flashed the EU RUU, now do I still want to flash the TMOUS radio and the ril file?
[HTC Sensation] kboogi:
Is there a tutorial or anything with using the EU RUU? Sorry, I just don't want to mess up my device...just being extra, extra careful...
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Just fire up your device&RUU, let it do its thing, and when its ready run revolutionary again. If revo aborts with an error, just check if you have the pink revolutionary font in Hboot. If you have, you can flash cwm manually, if you don't, run revo again.

Or where you referring to the supercid thing? Just search the forum for that, it's mentioned in at least 3 guides.

does anybody see noticable difference in battery life after flashing 1.45 ruu

plz confirm it
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Hmmm...interesting...going to try this now. Any references as to why this might improve battery life or anything?

Will also try switching to teamwin recovery. I have been using CWM until now.
[HTC Sensation] tigerz0202:
I don't have a problem with battery life with out flashing ruu, I think 17 hrs is pretty damn good with light to moderate useage

Oh man I completely forgot about this until I saw your comment in the dual core kernel thread. Any chance you can tell us more about smartass2? :D
[HTC Sensation] Yori1989:
Anyone tried to flash 2.2.5 over 2.2.2 without a full wipe? And how did it work??
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
This is NOT ment as an offense to you Yori1989, but to so many questioners like yourself:

Pleeeeeeaaaaaaase if you don't know if something would work or not,

JUST MAKE A BACKUP AND TRY IT!

If it goes wrong in some way, you can simply revert to your "snapshot" and ask here why it won't work. But please, please, please do not just ask if it would work. You cannot brick your phone with flashing a ROM. It's not even remotely imaginable, so there is no danger in trying! There are only 2 things that should be handled carefully on androids: Radio & Hboot. Everything else is nearly indestructible. So please safe yourself the time, XDA the DB space and us the skipping of pages of senseless questions. Thanks.

Now to you Yori1989, Dalvik and cache wipe should be enough and you

should

be ready to go.
[HTC Sensation] superas:
Hi friends,

sorry, I didn't understand this "All Headphones are Beats Headphones" what does it means?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Well, when I was on Desire, a lot of people reported that after flashing ROMs and radios multiple time their phone got slower and slower, so it looks like some part of the nand got cluttered with stuff. For some reason flashing RUU gets rid of all the clutter and device is a virgin again. I suppose it works the same here. That's regarding the speed. In regards to battery life, I have nooooo idea why would it improve.
[HTC Sensation] Yori1989:
Well the way you reply isnt nessesary at al. I an just asking if Anyone else tried it and if it worked. If it did it would save me soms time, and else i would have tried myself.

So you dont have to be an ass about it my question was simple, direct question. And besides you could make your point an other way, more friendly way. Thats What a community is for right?

Anyway Thanks for giving me an answer, too bad you was being an ass while you answered me.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Phones are running slower after...

...multiple radio flashes? Nonsense.

...multiple ROM flashes? Yes without a format (wipe) that is true.

Nand got cluttered with "stuff"? Please google nand first...

RUU does nothing else than using fastboot to flash -w everything... It even uses a rom.zip with a little update script...

Batterylife will increase in the case of the Sensation, because 2.3.4 comes with new firmwares for chipset and co (In fact there are way more partitions overwritten, than by a custom rom, see below). These are not flashed with a custom ROM, so you either need to extract and flash them manually or apply a RUU (and possibly OTA update).

These files are flashed with the latest OTA:

adsp.img
boot_signed.img
dzdata.img
hboot_Pyramid_8x60_1.17.0011_20110602_signedbyaa.nb0
radio.img
rcdata.img
recovery_signed.img
rpm.img
sbl1.img
sbl2.img
sbl3.img
splash1.nb0
system.img
tz.img

This can improve battery life, because, as earlier said, new chipset drivers will improve many things. Speed, Power usage, maybe even your sexlife.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
An ass? interesting. Insults are really necessary, aren't they?

I stated that I did not mean you specifically, but the pure amount of questions of this type.

You want to save time? EXACTLY my point! Just TRY IT. You would have been done 20 minutes ago, at least.

Furthermore the community is not for answering pointless questions, as far as I know we are in the subforum Android development, and you S-OFF'ed your device. So you should be able to answer this on your own. This is not the "every user gets taken to the hand and guided through every bit because they are too lazy to try something and just wait for the answer to be given on a silver spoon" subforum.

I am just sick of repeating answers over and over again, pointing towards google and trying to test your questions on my device, just so you can brain afk follow a 4 step guide.

This is, as my previous answer, not a (as you said) "ass-answer", and again its not meant as an insult. Its just a fact. Fullstop. No further discussion needed.

Now Back 2 topic: In what "wrong holes" were you poking baadnwz? :p More Information! Details! :p :p
[HTC Sensation] dcrin3:
just flashed it right now at 00:00 Saturday. No issues yet.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
What are you trying to prove here?

I'm only quoting what people in Desire forums said. Baad will be able to clarify what exactly happened there.

And yes, after multiple flashes of radios and ROMs. What exactly caused it, I don't know, but RUU seemed to fix it (never done it myself)

What is wrong with naming internal storage what it is ie NAND?
[HTC Sensation] rawrfische:
Well, I'm not going to get into the whole backup thing, but yes I went from 2.2.2 to 2.2.5 with just a cache and dalvik wipe and it went fine.

Going to start over and flash RUU in a minute though. It just seems worth the trouble. Backing up first of course. :p
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Show-p1984

You mentioned improved sex life. From your recent replies I gather that you might need to run RUU yourself. Sound a bit frustrated. So please, stop taking it out on fellow members and get a shag.

While a lot of what you are saying is true, your approach and attitude suck my friend.
[HTC Sensation] mgorman:
Is flashing the radio different then flashing the ruu?
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Nothing is wrong in naming internal storage as a NAND. But if you would know what a NAND-grid is, you should have not told us fairy-tales about cluttered NAND.

It is (again I am repeating myself) not possible that a NAND gets slower by formatting and flashing manually, but it miraculous recovers after doing this with a script with some fancy graphical windows backend. Mission Impossible. Even for Ethan Hunt, and hell we all know that he got all the fancy stuff.

The only thing that is possible and true is, that after 100.000 - 1.000.000 erases a NAND will die. As in dead. Hardware broken. Brick. Unfixable.

The radio is the part of a phone that has nearly none effect on performance. (I am not talking of bandwith or gps fix here) For all intense and purposes your phone should run without the radio as fine as it does with (if this would be possible, which is not). You would just have an AndroIpod without Wifi.

Quoting a statement that's nonsense, does not make it right and spreading it does not help anyone. ;)

EDIT:

While my approach may suck, that above is your approach to a discussion? Getting personal and attacking me on an intimate basis? Mature. Reeeeaaal mature.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Wtf, its like talking to brick wall here. I shall repeat myself: according to people...

Now, we could argue all day here, but its not what this thread is here for.

Such a knowledgeable person, you have to know what exactly increases performance after flashing RUU, and I'm not talking about newer RUU, but about the original one. Could you share this precious information with us please?
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
The original Sensation RUU does not improve performance at all.

Flashing a RUU can have an increase in performance as a sideeffect. But only on this RUU that has been flashed. If you flash another Rom, it will be lost again. So why is that? The precious information is the follwing: Everything matches everything. There are no discrepancies, no user messed around with versions, and it is optimized to work in that configuration and you will have no cache zombies (In your heaaaad, in your heaaaad zombieee zombieee...) lying around.

Good night btw ;)
[HTC Sensation] baadnewz:
yo guys take five.

tinky1 my improvement for speed is strictly related to a full wipe flash, i didn't do a clean flash since rc1 i think :D (yes im lazy)

what a ruu does (btw i didnt use the ruu i extracted rom zip place it on sdcard and flashed via bootloader) is flashing ALL phones partition with updated files / firmware / drivers etc.

a custom rom (any custom rom) flashes system, data and boot partition.

ofc. i can enforce on updater-script to flash ALL partition(rmp,radio, spl, radio custom hboot, etc.) but the risk of bricking is higher and i don't need users asking me to buy new phones
[HTC Sensation] skadoosh:
is there any way to remove the all headphones are beats mod after flashing it??
[HTC Sensation] M-M-C:
I think someone suggested something like that before ;)

I wanted to give teamwin recovery a try today, but my battery was drained completely... i simply forgot to charge it, too much to do in real life... work, wife etc ;)

i got CWM 4.0.1.4 so everything is fine now, but with teamwin recovery i would have been f***. So im sticking with CWM until the charging-bug is fixed.
[HTC Sensation] Ch@rly:
Automatic reboot

I test this great ROM, but I have a big problem: an automatic reboot every 10 minutes :(

Any ideas?
[HTC Sensation] Kupfel:
I really love the teamwin recovery though. I'm almost always somewhere where I can charge my phone if needed tho ... and I have a desktop dock that can charge batteries separately as well in case I somehow manage to completely drain my battery :D
[HTC Sensation] stevejau:
Now that was interesting, decided to try the install 1.45 RUU etc etc as per baad's much earlier post.

A couple of things happened

1. flashed fine :)

2. still have s-off :)

3.phone says "locked" in nice pretty pink letters :(

4. cannot flash recovery either via flash or PG58IMG :(

5. so all in all i have a great working bog standard phone.. and F**k all else.

Other than that my day is good. :)
[HTC Sensation] ptr_hamilton:
After step 2, gotta use revolutionary again. Even if it says s-off. Yout need the special hboot to flash pg58img
[HTC Sensation] stevejau:
thanks, will try that.
[HTC Sensation] artymarty:
Have you followed all the instructions?

If you have, try a full erase of each everything and flash again from scratch.

If you haven't, try a full erase of each everything and flash again from scratch.

Which browser?

If it's Android browser, turn off mobile view in Settings.
[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
I know what he means, even with mobile off it still does. There's a couple sites that do this and i noticed it happening when base changed to 2.3.4.....weird
[HTC Sensation] Ch@rly:
Yes I have do Fullwipe (Data/Cache/System) before to flash
[HTC Sensation] M-M-C:
This is OT but here you go:

1) open browser, type in adress-bar "about:debug"

2) now open the options-menu, search for UAString

3) Change from "Android" to "Desktop"

4) Profit
[HTC Sensation] chairman_palm:
Great rom and best tune for Sensation

Thanks alot
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Man I really do hate the constant "refreshing" on the Sense tabs like people, messages and calendar...too often, and takes so long...:(
[HTC Sensation] stevejau:
Okey dokey,

Ran Revolutionary.exe again

Still showed LOCKED in pink writing, but still S-OFF...however was able to install cwm without a problem.

wiped phone, installed 2.2.5 and telstra zip, booted phone, installed all apps and settings and all back to normal.

Bootloader still shows LOCKED in pink writing yet everything is working perfectly....go figure.
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Mine is the same...can't remember if it was like that before I wiped.
[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:
baad,

flash your last version, its great.

excellent work ;)
[HTC Sensation] sindresv:
Just flashed 2.2.5 over 2.2.3 and as always it's amazing!

I just have one wish: is it possible to remove the extended quick settings in the next rom, or make a zip to remove it? :-) No biggie, but like the stock version best. I keep turning off the auto brigthness :-\
[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:
just do this

fastboot flash hboot <name>.img

PG58IMG_HBOOT_1.17.0011 unlocked --->http://www.multiupload.com/UQ37K5ZGCQ
[HTC Sensation] stevejau:
cheers for that...but you do know it's a HTC conspiracy against the Australians, They are watching us.

At least now I can rest easy knowing someone else has the same as me........wonder if we can profit from this weird issue on ebay?. will go 50/50 with you.
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
So what kernel are people using? Anyone using the unity or RCmix kernel with overclocking?

LOL :p
[HTC Sensation] lamecake:
Using Unity V6 here.. Its the most stable Unity kernel for me, and no real bugs as far as i know. V7/8 cause my connection to have issues, both wifi&3g. And the whole dual-core overclock discussion i dont care about, not that android is capable of utilizing them both at full potential anyway. Anyway, battery consumption is good here also.
[HTC Sensation] stevejau:
I was wondering if the LOCKED writing in boot loader shows only for those of us with HBOOT 1.18.000. Is HBOOT 1.18.000 only for Z710A models?

Like i said, I have S-OFF, CWM installed, and full root and my phone fly's, no over clocking here.
[HTC Sensation] madmarinero:
I have only one issue : when I'm using the calls through Internet (on Wi-fi) after 10-20 seconds I lose the connection (call dropped) ...if I receive a call the call / connection stays for 10 minutes or more without any problem ....is there any solution for this issue ? ... or maybe can anyone give me an advise for a good SIP / VoIP application for Sensation ? ....thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] Kupfel:
It is locked because you flashed the ruu which also flash a locked

hboot. You have to run revolutionary again to get an unlocked hboot if you want that. You don't need it for

a lot though. Flashing a different splash image requires an unlocked hboot for example.
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Well strangeley, I tried what baad suggested. I wiped and flashed the EU ROM, then reflashed revolutionx. But during revolutionx, after it went to fastboot and did 2 reboots, I kept getting "communication error". But I had s-off so I ignored it. I tried several times, but it happened every time.

I wonder if that is why?
[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
Could you still flash custom recovery? I want to try this but want to be able to return to custom roms. As far as I can tell even tho it sais locked it seemed to be alright getting cwm back, can you confirm?
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Yep, recovery flashed fine and I'm back to InsertCoin ROM. Couldn't figure out why I had that issue though.

Decided to flash TeamWin recovery too instead of Clockwork Recovery.
[HTC Sensation] stevejau:
as i said before everything works, including custom splash screen, boot animation, it just shows LOCKED..Everything seems to be working fine..it is just odd. To the best of my memory i didn't have LOCKED before.

EDIT: anyway..enough said about it..it all works which is great...I won't lose sleep over it.

Second Edit: just plain weird..after doing other hackery to my phone and 3 or 4 reboots i noticed boot loader now shows Revolutionary in pink and not locked.. some weird sh*t going on here. LOL..it's HTC watching us ALL..I'm telling ya.!..
[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
Good to know...will follow this process when Im home tomorrow. Does team win recovery have recharging problem? I'll probably stick to revolution 3.0.14 to be safe
[HTC Sensation] Kupfel:
Flashing the ruu replaced my hboot with 1.18.000 which said locked on top. Ran revolutionary again which showed a communications error after a bit. My hboot is back to revolutionary now anyway though.

With the locked hboot I could still flash teamwin recovery but things like flashing a splash image would abort saying writing denied or something.
[HTC Sensation] zizoty:
I already did this and I also unchecked the mobile view in the stock browser but websites such as engadget.com and pornhub.com are always display in mobile view with stock browser. Dolphins and opera browsers work correctly but something is not right with the stock browser. I'm on tmobile USA if that make any different to you guys.
[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
LOOOOOOOL IM CRYING. pornhub was the site I was referring to aswell but I didn't wanna say it. Looool mate love the boldness.

Back on topic I do think its a base issue, I use dolphin hd when I want to see something in desktop and the stock browser won't allow it.

The about:debug didn't work...it just extended my settings. So I tried about:config and the page wouldn't load :/

Maybe baad could take a look? I wouldn't hope for anything tho...it does this on stock so deffo a 2.3.4 thing...this didn't happen on 2.3.3
[HTC Sensation] zizoty:
I'm sure we are not the only one using these sites. I had this problem in 2.3.3 too but didn't want to post about because dolphin was working fine for me. I'm sure some smart people on xda will find a fix for this.
[HTC Sensation] mda4man:
Don't worry I use these sites too, hey its natural right? I didn't have this problem on 2.3.3 so i tried to replace the browser apk with the one from the insert coin 2.3.3 ROM...didn't work tho. Looks like we gotta switch over to dolphin whenever a porn session is brewing
